Tomorrow, hopefully

Ahh, such wonderful comments from people about the Pattern Tester! I'm glad people had fun using it! I'd like to create a more advanced version which would also allow people to upload their own designs to play with. Also I'd love to make it so you can see the pattern & colourway in context. I just need to find/take some photographs of a blank cushion, lampshade, armchair, etc.

Sigh, I was really hoping to see my fabric arrive last week, if not the week before. Looks like the Easter break threw things out a fair bit. But my printer told me that it really should be ready by Monday. I really hope that's true, this time. And then I'll get it up into my shop asap!

Meanwhile, I've been preparing to release two new designs. I'm really looking forward to printing the Geese pattern from the other week - I have a good feeling about it. But I really want the other design I print alongside it to be something I feel equally happy with. And I reckon I've finally found it:

This pattern was inspired by some trees I saw in one of those little Japanese pattern/ornament books that you can get from the Brunswick Street Bookstore. Those little books are great - we've got quite a collection of them now. So am I on the right track thinking that this one will go well with the geese??
